I guess I'm lucky. I've acquired most things that I could use already. Willpower is overrated. 

However, if myself and Si are the only ones left, that makes me laugh. 

I'm still in . . . unsubscribed from emails/FB groups etc. I was so tempted with an AGC on sale here (which has thankfully sold to someone else), but actually I think I've substituted boat refurbishment GAS for bass GAS.

I was going to quietly abstain this year. . . . and then 2 weeks in a cab that I've been waiting for for over a year came up! That is me done now for probably the next 3 or 4 years, but I've blown it for 2019.

It's going to be one helluva cab then! You going to spill the beans on what you're getting? :)

I've just paid for a bass that I'd agreed the purchase of before Christmas. So a fail according to strict rules.

Oh come on. That doesn't count!! Contracts have been exchanged before the cutoff period.

I may be about to fail spectacularly (not that I haven’t already)

I’m going to hold off actually, got to wait for a couple of refunds and I’m running out of space at the minute (and patient wife tickets)

I bought a Super Midget from andyneeds (great guy). I'm using it with one of my SC's. I've already got the thumbs up from last week-end's gig.

My Two10' cabs might be at risk!!

That's the sort of talk that will inspire me to ruin my attempt at this abstinance challenge. Begone, devil!

 

 

 

Or, alternatively, PM me.... Ahem.

I’m still in! I even spent time yesterday deliberately not looking at bass porn and speaker cab goodness and decided to try practice instead. It worked too. :)

Makes you last longer if you practice while looking at pictures

Be reasonable Si, a whole load of folk managed to last nine days. Just not two weeks... 😄
